Wave 1 (OPEN)
Setting: Dormitory Hallway, Floor 10
Format: Prose to start, but I'll match you!
Summary: This stupid collar is really stressing poor Tahno out. Luckily, all of the bendable water in the aquarium is pretty relaxing.
Warnings: None to start, but he might be a bit of a jerk to you (or hit on you), depending on who you are and what you do. Possible swearing, too.
This stupid collar on his neck was driving him crazy. He’d barely been awake for twenty minutes, and he already hated this place. What kind of place put collars on their residents? He had every intention of going to the bathroom to get a better look at it, but he only got halfway there before he felt the liquid flowing through the collar.
Well, he could walk all the way to the bathroom just to stare at it, or he could just stop here and bend the thing off.
At least, that was the plan. The liquid inside was bendable alright, but it didn’t help him. He’d spent the last few minutes trying to yank the liquid hard enough to burst through the collar, but it just wouldn’t.
Now, he was leaning back against the wall, both hands hovering inches in front of his neck as he tried desperately to damage the collar from within. His face was red, and his hands were practically white from the strain.
Man, he must’ve looked like an idiot to any passersby.
(Floor 10)
After all of that effort on a stupid collar got him absolutely nowhere, he was feeling a bit frustrated. Maybe even a bit inadequate, seeing as his bending couldn’t break such a simple little thing. He had set off exploring just to take his mind off it. He had taken the elevator down to the first floor, and then gone up. Most of the floors didn’t really appeal to him.
That was, until he found the tenth floor.
All that water was beautiful.
…The fish were nice too, but he really didn’t care about those.
It had only taken him ten seconds to discover that, despite being held in place by some weird mystical force, the water could still be bent. He’d just have to put it back in the weird no-glass tanks when he was done.
A few minutes later, and he was dancing with the water like he did at home. He could hear the roar of the crowd, feel the lights that covered the stadium, taste the enemy attacks flying by him, and oh it felt good.
The only problem was that he was showing a blatant disregard for the poor fish in the water. And maybe even himself, should anything dangerous find its way into his flying river or water balls.

...That could have been a lie. He wasn't sure. If he had disappointed a woman, he sure wasn't sober enough at the time to remember it now.
He nodded at her second comment, keeping quiet so he wouldn't accidentally say something dumb. He was the type to make stupid moves, and he knew it. His pride would be the death of him here. Multiple times.

She moved over to a carefully hidden pile and bent down to retrieve her belongings. Grabbing a towel out of her backpack, she began to dry off what hadn't yet and pulled out a set of comfortable clothes.
It seemed that whatever the temperature drop in the tower was doing to some wasn't affecting the tall, troll female.
"So, what be yer plans den? For right now I mean." she asked curiously as she began to dress up.

He watched her retrieve her clothes, a little surprised that she had hidden stuff like that. It wasn't until she began to dry off that he wondered if she was cold. He was a bit chilly himself, and he hadn't even been half-naked in the water.
He paused at her question. Plans? What plans? He had come here on a whim and had absolutely no idea what he was going to do.
"Ah... Nothing. Free from now until forever. And you?"

"Well, if ya be wantin' ta do anyting, let me know. If yer gonna go yer own way, I'll be headin' up to da dorms."
no subject
"I should probably actually look around the place before I say I've got no plans."
This had brightened his mood enough. He didn't need to stand here and waterbend just for his own sanity at this point. This place wasn't all bad. There was at least one friendly person in existence.
"See you around, Xue. Don't hesitate to come find me if you just can't stay away."
And with that he sauntered back out to the stairs.
